Life is a Special Occasion!

Today is National Making Life Beautiful Day. It is a day dedicated to encouraging and celebrating men and women who are making life beautiful. Whether you’re creating beauty through building relationships or helping others achieve personal success, one small action can lead to a ripple effect, making life beautiful not just for yourself, but for those around you, too.
Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful for beauty is God's handwriting - a wayside sacrament. Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every fair flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
The longer I live, the more beautiful life becomes.
Frank Lloyd Wright
We should all know it’s not material things that will lead us to a beautiful life. Even with its struggles and difficulties life can be beautiful, depending what you focus on. A beautiful life is one that makes you feel fully alive, is full of inspiration and creates a deeper, more connected environment for us to live in.
The chances are, if you remember to count your blessings, you’re already living a beautiful life. What’s also true is that once you count your blessings, you’ll realize that life is, indeed, beautiful. Being thankful for all that you already have is the key to a beautiful life. Taking time out to be thankful even through the tough times will set you up for a happier, more peaceful existence. It will not only touch your own life but also those around you
You can make your life beautiful by sharing with others the joy of living. Life is doubly beautiful when it is shared. Do the things you love with enjoyment and gratitude and most certainly life will be beautiful for you.
I hope you all have a SUPER Saturday !
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.
Helen Keller

I love the quote from Emmerson Pam! I love all of your thoughts on positivity. I sure wish we could get good corn on the cob here. Our corn is positively horrible, but I reckon it is because we get too much rain and not enough sunshine! Have a great weekend! xoxo
That corn recipe looks delicious! I wouldn't have thought of putting Parmesan cheese on it. It is so true to have a beautiful life one must be grateful for it and all the things we have in it that are blessings from God.

I love corn on the cob
That quote by Emerson is something, isn't it?
I'll always thank my former husband for showing me that beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
